Hi, I’ve been using the Anglican chant template to set items for our choir and I’ve just a note spacing problem with one chant (Walford Davies) last quarter.

How do I address the note spacing for the B/C clash in the 3^rd bar?

Now if there’s also an easier way to show that voice split in the tenor part, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks

Why not use \voiceThree and/or \voiceFour, see https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/learning/i_0027m-hearing-voices. In other words, replace your definition of TenorMusic by

TenorMusic = \relative {
  g1 af2 c2 c2
  \new Voice = "melody" {
    <<
      \new Voice {
        \voiceThree
        bf4 af4 g1
      }
      {
        \voiceOne
        c2 c1
      }
    >>
  }
}
